Underlying Program Goals:

// lead students in HANDS-ON construction combined with a design studio education in order to discover new intersections between design and fabrication.


// foster a COLLABORATIVE studio environment such that students engage more fully in a dialogue with their peers, practitioners, context and communities.


// implement architecture, design and the making of space to catalyze POSITIVE SOCIAL CHANGE and stewardship of our built environment.

Thoughts from Virginia

- uploaded new site_01 information to the side bar. Are the links not working for everyone? (comment please)

- REVIEW TIME: we will have our work pinned up by 7:00pm (sharp!) so that a few representatives from Roxbury and Karen Nelson can come to the review. We will pin up not as individual groups, but categorize the layout according to sites 1-3 to have a broader discussion about each site and the proposals. How do folks feel about another room for the SD review?

- Its quite windy here today in stevensburg, VA and we've got a lot of beautiful wind chimes out in the yard. Has anyone considered sound generation via hanging objects from the canopy in the exterior sites? It could be really beautiful...
(comment please)

thats all for now. keep us posted if you have any questions or concerns.
